The image depicts a group of seven women sitting on the floor of a traditional Japanese-style room. The women are wearing kimonos in various colors and patterns, including red, orange, green, blue, and white. The room features tatami-matted flooring, a low table with food and drink items, and sliding doors with a grid pattern made of wood and paper. A pathway leads to an outdoor area with a tree stump, rocks, and grass. The women appear to be engaged in a game or activity, with one woman holding up her hand. The artwork is by Hasegawa Yasumasa and is titled "Playing the Hand Game".
